I know that a few big names have come out of montana, but who are the top all-time to present day skiers ever to come from the 406?

hahaha this is so awesome and true. also, just because you (or your parents) have a condo in a resort town, doesn't mean you are a local there. fuck no. if grew up in chicago but took a yearly trip to aspen, guess what? you are a local of..... chicago.

i was wondering the same thing. Travis Adams should probably be on there as well. and do you what ever happened to Doug Nangle? i guess he's not from MT but lived here a while and used to kill it.

I don't like to argue with opinion, and you can have yours. Just as long as you understand that everyone else might not think your way, so don't get emotional when people claim local status.

Personally, I will not call myself a local of BC until I live here longer than anywhere else, so with that mentality, I have just shy of a decade to go. As far as the town I am living in. I don't know if I will go ahead and claim local status like it's my right, but all my friends who HAVE grown up here consider me a local, I have no plans on leaving, and why the hell would I call myself a local to a place I haven't been to in a decade, have no intention of going back, and have no connections with?

Home is where the heart is.

hahaha that definently doesn't make you a local. especially those kids with condos. I live almost an hour and a half away from my home mountain, but i ski there every weekend and skip many days of school to go there so i think i can declare myself somewhat of a local there. Knowing all of the employees and liftees may make me even more of a local. I may not live in the town but i am definently one of the local skiers on the mountain.

That is a stupid definition, no offense.

What your describing, in my mind is your "hometown". No matter where you go, where you live, your home town will always be where you grew up, and that will never change.

However, your telling me if you move to idk denver for example. and live there for 50 years, have kids, work there, the whole deal, you wouldn't consider yourself a denver local cause you didn't go to high school there?

You become a local, when you live somewhere long enough to know the in's and out's of that community like the back of your hand.
